Devil's Food Cake | How to make Eva Longoria's Devil’s Food Cake
Watch a step-by-step how-to video of Alyena making Eva Longoria's amazing Devil's Food Chocolate Cake with Chocolate frosting.
The first thing you need to do is fill a pan or the bottom of a double boiler about 1/3 of the way full with water and bring it to a simmer.
Place another pan on top and melt 3 oz of unsweetened chocolate. Once melted, set aside to cool.
In a large bowl add 1 stick of room temperature unsalted butter ,
2 1/2 cups of lightly packed light brown sugar,
2 tsps of vanilla
3 large eggs
Beat on high speed for about 3 minutes or until batter is smooth and light in color
Pour cooled melted chocolate into cake batter
On low speed blend until combined
Next sift together 2 1/2 cups of cake flour, 2 tsps of baking soda, and 1/2 tsp of salt
In 3 parts, blend in flower mixture and butter milk to cake batter
Add one cup of boiling water and blend until batter is smooth
Okay now its time to butter and flower your cake pans
Pour 1/2 the cake batter into each cake pan and bake in a preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until a tooth pic comes out clean. Let the cakes cool before frosting is applied
Okay speaking of frosting, we need to melt some more chocolate
Melt 4oz of unsweetened chocolate in a pan like we did earlier. Once melted set aside to cool
In a large bowl add 4 cups of sifted confectioners sugar, 1/2 cup of hot water and the melted chocolate
Beat on medium speed until blended
Add one stick of unsalted butter, one egg, and 1 tsp of vanilla
Get on your blender again and beat for 2 to 3 minutes until frosting is thick and fluffy. This frosting is so smooth and delicious! Can't wait!
Back to the cakes, Use a serrated knife and remove the dome of the cakes. Once that is done, you can start frosting and and decorating! We used some fresh organic raspberries and a little mint. Please let me know how your cake turns out. I hope you love it as much as we do! Thank you so much for watching. See you on the next video!

EGGLESS DEVILS FOOD CAKE + FROSTING | BEST EVER LAYERED CHOCOLATE CAKE| RICH CHOCO FROSTING
This video is all about making the BEST eggless chocolate cake layered with the most decadent chocolate fudge frosting.
If you want to make a chocolate cake for a special occasion then this is the cake you need. The light devil's food chocolate cake sponge with the indulgent frosting is the perfect combination.
I topped my cake with some lovely chocolate shavings. All you need to do is melt some chocolate, spread in thin on parchment and let it set. Once set, using a bench scraper, scrape the chocolate lengthwise and they'll automatically start rolling. Easy three steps and your chocolate cake garnish is ready!
I have made an eggless version today but you can also make it with egg. Just replace curd with 2 eggs.
Ingredients
For the cake
1 ½ cup (180gms) maida
¾ cup (90gms) cocoa powder
½ tsp (3gms) baking soda
1 tsp (4gms) baking powder
¾ cup (180ml) vegetable oil
1 ½ cup (300gm) caster sugar
1 cup (285gms) curd
½ tsp vanilla extract
½ cup (120ml) milk + 1tsp (5ml) vinegar
For chocolate fudge frosting
1 cup (200gms) butter
2 cups (260gms) icing sugar
1/2 to 3/4 cup cocoa powder *
1 cup (175gms) melted chocolate
1 cup (230ml) warm cream
To top
Chocolate shavings
* Personally, I love making this frosting with cocoa powder, to give it a deep chocolate flavor. That is why I add 3/4 cup cocoa powder here. However, if you want to keep the chocolate flavor more on the sweeter side, then you can reduce the quantity of cocoa powder and add 1/2 cup instead.
